Lista de especie de Pterophoridae de Bolivia con nuevos registros (Lepidoptera: Pterophoridae) Resumen Damos nuevos datos sobre las especies de Pterophoridae de Bolivia y proporcionamos una lista de ellos, incluyendo 41 especies y 13 géneros. Nuevas especies son registradas por primera vez para Bolivia (en el artículo son marcados con *). El estudio estaba basado sobre la literatura principal sobre Pterophoridae de Bolivia PALABRAS CLAVE: Lepidoptera, Pterophoridae, new data, Bolivia. Introduction The Pterophoridae fauna of Bolivia has never been separately considered in the scientific literature. Till now there were 32 known species of them GIELIS (2003, 2006, 2011, 2013), KOVTUNOVICH et al. (2016). Material Examining the collections of plume moths from Bolivia, graciously provided to us by V. Sinyaev (Moscow, Russia), we have discovered 9 more species new for the fauna of this country.

There is no doubt that further examination of Pterophoridae from this region will provide many other new species which are still unknown for Bolivia.
